Who are we arming now?

An interesting ad campaign by California Peace Action -- it features a 1983 picture of Donald Rumsfeld shaking hands with Saddam Hussein.

It points out that Iraq was the seventh consecutive time that the US went to war against a regime it had previously backed. (The other six were Afghanistan, Yugoslavia, Haiti, Somalia, and Panama, in case anybody's counting.)

Scary, but not particularly surprising.
